From: The Best of Fats Waller; Year: 2012 (1942); Genre: Jazz
I'm picking another song where its publishing date happens to match my song pick number; this is a real good one. This was one of the last major compositions from Fats Waller, sadly a year later a bout with pneumonia brought on by a hectic schedule took the master composer/musician's life at an untimely age of 39. He's another one of those musical giants that accomplished an amazing amount within the short time he was on this Earth.

Hear Jitterbug Waltz on YouTube.
